Tips for Success:

• Grow in an east or west window or under lights.

• Avoid growing areas with hot noon day sun.

• Bring the moss to near dryness between waterings, then thoroughly saturate the moss (it’s better to under water a little than over water).

• To bring into flower, subject the plant to temperatures in the high to mid 50’s at night for a period of four weeks. This is most easily done in the fall.

• Fertilize only lightly and then only during the active growing season which is usually spring to fall.

• For long term growth, use a clay pot. Clay will ensure a quicker drying time for the moss and in turn will keep the roots healthy.

I 've had two buds bloom and just fall but still have 4 new blooms. This was an excellent purchase. I'm ready to buy more plants and try some of Logees citrus items. I wish I could upload a picture but the one on the website is quite accurate. (Posted on 6/13/2017)

Leaves were surprisingly Large Review by Kat-chan

How do you rate this product?

This is the 4th and final of my initial plant order from Logee's. Expertly packed to retain moisture and prevent damage in transit. I was pleasantly surprised at the size of the plant, it has huge 6-7 inch by 3 inch leaves and two 10 inch long spikes already with nubs of buds started. The clear pot shows what looks to be healthy succulent roots. I am ecstatic about my purchase and highly recommend Logee's to any sceptics on the fence. I am happy I did. And their videos and how to pdf's are very handy and informative. (Posted on 3/12/2017)
